This is a book titled "Settlement of Florida" by the late Congressman Charles E. Bennett , politician, historian and writer. 1968, 1st. edition #139 of 200 with 253 pages. There is also an inscription and the book is signed. Hard bound leather or leatherette. A few discoloration spots on the inscribed page but nothing bad. No rips or tears.
